SIU freezes tuition
The Southern Illinois University System will not increase
undergraduate tuition rates at its Carbondale and Edwardsville
campuses in the 2024-25 school year.

its meeting in Carbondale Thursday. The SIU System has not
raised the undergraduate tuition rate in seven years.
Agrichemical recycling
The Illinois Department of Agriculture encourages farmers and
agrichemical facilities to take part in a free agrichemical
container recycling program.
Beginning in the middle of July and continuing into August,
sites throughout the state will collect containers that are
recycled to make shipping pallets. Collection sites will accept
only high-density, No. 2 plastic agrichemical containers that
are clean and dry.
Participants are responsible for removing all caps, valves,
metal, labels and foil seals. Participants are also responsible
for cutting off the top and bottom of plastic drums and cutting
the side of the drum from top to bottom.
